Speaking to Business Insider, Sophie said "I realised that continuing to be this fitness person, even though it didn't feel like me, was wrong. It was hard because I had built my following surrounding that image for three and a half years."

She explained "For me, the reason my account was a fitness one in the first place was because that's where I found acceptance. I was needing to look for it outside of myself because I wasn't giving it to myself — but all we're ALL looking for is our own acceptance and love."
